II. L. Emery's Newly Invented Double, 

 Tosfiile-Joiiited, Horizontal, Progrtssive 

 Lever Hay and Cotton Pre.ss. 



PROBABLY no one thing has been more wanted, 

 and less improvements made upon it of late years, 

 than the Ilay Press. Notwithstanding this was completed 

 quite late the past season, a large number were made and 

 ])Ut into sucee^sfid operation. As seen in the cut it is closed 

 up and about midway in process of compressing a bundle 

 of Hay. When fully pressed home, the ends of the levers, 

 which are seen at each end extending above the box, are 

 brought down by the chains or ropes and shelves, until the 

 levers themselves become horizontal with the floor. The 

 Pn'ssis provided wilh two followers, both working from the 

 ends towards the center and eflch other. The chains or 

 ropes from the levers are connected together by passing one 

 of them under the machine and both joining in a larger 

 chain or rope — this larger one being eoimecled with a cap- 

 stan or blocks and ropes, as most convenient. 



When the Pnss isclriven home, the hay becomes pressed 

 into a bundle standing on il.s end. The side doors are 

 thrown open while the bands are passed round the bundle 

 and seeuri'd, when 'the top doors are loosened and the bun- 

 dle thrown out. For operation, the levers are raised, the 

 fcillowers drawn back, and the top doors opened from the 

 center to each end by unbuttoning the middle cross bar, as 

 seen in the cut. The opening on the top for receiving hay, 

 is 2 feet wide and 8 feet long. The Press stands upon the 

 floor or ground when in use. which makes it both conveni- 

 ent and capacious for filling and treading in the hay."^ 



The whole Press measures 14 feet long, 2 ft. 10 in. wide, 

 4 ft. 10 in. high, outside measurement, and weighs, complete, 

 from 12iio to 1500 lbs., and is ca})able of compressing 250 lbs. 

 of Timothy Hay into 16 cubic feet, (being 2x2x4 ft.) at the 

 rate of five bunJlles per hour, with two men and one horse, 

 and heavier bales in proportion as to size and time re- 

 quired. 



For transportation, the inside work is readily removed 

 and boxed up, while the sides are packed together making 

 solid cubic measurement of the whole thing. 



Price complete, wilh chains and capstans, !f1.3.5, and war- 

 ranted to work as represented, to the satisfaction of the pur- 

 chaser. 



I will, in a future number, give a further notice in 

 detail, with more cuts illustrating its several parts detached.
